Shadow Child
Can a place hold a memory? Do actions of the past have sway over what happens in the future? Do memories create magic, or does the magic create memories? Step into a world where magic and mystery combine, where the past blends with the present and events beyond belief unfold. Then realize it could really happen: In a state called Georgia. Step into Shadow Child’s world, a collection of seventeen stories, sixteen fiction and one non, following the history of Georgia from 400 years ago to today, where the land tells a story of joy, sorrow, pain, and triumph; where anything can happen in the hearts that beat on it and are buried in it.

"Stephen Doster is a master in narrative storytelling. Told with delicacy and inspiration, his craft and keen insight as a native Georgia historian will make you weep (Tides Turning), laugh uproariously (Casagrande) and marvel as you absorb his writing. When you get to Kiss the Rim, it’s pure magic! A FIVE STAR read!"
Pamela Bauer Mueller: Author Neptune's Honor, An Angry Drum Echoed, Splendid Isolation
"Having immersed myself completely in non-fiction recently, I’d totally forgotten how delicious historical fiction could be until I read Stephen Doster’s new book, Shadow Child. As a Saint Simons resident, the stories have a special meaning for me, like a box of candy for a sweet tooth. Whatever you’re looking for in your next read, this book has it all." Tom Dennard: Author Discovering Life's Trails, Born a Ramblin' Man, Daily Words to Inspire You
